Nathan Ake suffered a thigh injury whilst playing for the Netherlands during the last international break.
The defender had to be substituted just before half-time during the 2-2 draw against Germany. Speaking about the injury before the Brentford game, Guardiola said:
“Injured. I think until the next international break. We are unlucky with Nathan – every time he goes [to play for his country], he comes back injured.”
Guardiola’s comments suggest that Ake will miss the fixtures against Inter, Arsenal, Watford (in the Carabao Cup), Newcastle United, Slovan Bratislava (in the Champions League) and Fulham.
